Barcelona will play a friendly against Andres Iniesta's Japanese team Vissel Kobe in Tokyo



FC Barcelona has announced that they will be playing a friendly match against Japanese team Vissel Kobe, led by former Barcelona midfielder Andres Iniesta, on June 6th at Tokyo's National Stadium. The match is scheduled to take place two days after the final day of the LaLiga season, which is a few weeks away. The Spanish team has been dominating the league this season and this match should serve as a warm-up for the team ahead of the European championships.



This announcement comes amid reports in Japanese media that Iniesta, who is 38 years old and a former Spanish national team player, will be leaving Vissel Kobe this summer. He has been with the team since 2018 after playing for Barcelona for almost 600 games. Although his contract with the Japanese team is set to expire at the end of the year, reports suggest that he may be released early so that he can find another club in the United States or Middle East.



Despite being with the Japanese club for almost three years, Iniesta has only played 38 minutes in three league appearances in the current season. However, his contribution to the team has been significant, as they are currently at the top of the J-League table.



The friendly match between Barcelona and Vissel Kobe is expected to be a thrilling encounter. Barcelona will be keen to impress their fans ahead of the European championships, while Iniesta and his team will be eager to showcase their skills against their former player and his current team.



In conclusion, the match will be an exciting one for football fans all over the world, especially for those in Japan. The prospect of seeing two of the world's top teams play against each other, along with the possible departure of Iniesta, will no doubt make it an unforgettable event.
